Certification in Pediatric Practice

EIM’s Certification in Pediatric Practice was created for the physical therapist passionate about advancing their skill and evidence-based knowledge of pediatric physical therapy. The goal of the program is to effectively translate that knowledge into optimal critical reasoning and application into practice for families and their children of all abilities. Students will become highly skilled in evaluation, treatment and on-going assessment of the movement system throughout the lifespan. The content is provided in a hybrid, collaborative learning format allowing the individual practitioner to continue to engage in their professional and personal responsibilities.

Payment Options

Students are responsible for an initial $2,000 tuition deposit with the return of their student contract. Students have two options for paying the remaining balance, monthly or quarterly payments. If monthly payments are selected, the student must provide EIM with credit card information. The charges will be automatically charged to that credit card each month, beginning in month one of the program. If quarterly payments are selected, the remaining balance will be split into equal payments. The number of payments will depend upon which program the student is enrolled and the first payment be in month three of the program. Students are responsible for contacting EIM’s billing department (888-709-7096 or finance@eimpt.com) to set up tuition payment terms. EIM is happy to accommodate direct billing to sponsoring organizations (e.g. employers) where applicable.
